Growing Up!

I have this picture on my desktop and it makes me happy every time I see their smiles.

Back to School!

I can't believe it . . . 5th grade for Ethan and 2nd grade for Alex and Emma!  So far, so good.  Excellent teachers and happy kids makes me happy!

45 and counting

Nope, that's not my age yet (but close).  That's how many pounds I have lost!  I have been using a product line called Isagenix and it is really amazing.  It has made getting healthy and losing weight a cinch!  I have tried many times to lose weight and it is SO HARD TO DO.  But this is really working for me and for many others.  The products are not even designed specifically for weight loss, but for nutritional cleansing.  It helps to detoxify your body, balance your blood sugars, increase your metabolism, burn fat and build lean muscle tissue.  I feel great . . . sleep great, have more energy and am no longer addicted to caffeine!

If you'd like to learn more, please come to an informational meeting/product sampling at my house on Tuesday, July 10th at 6:00 p.m.  Bring a friend and your name will be entered into a drawing for cash and prizes.  There's no pressure but I promise you will find the nutritional information very interesting!  A master nutritionist will be presenting the information.  If you need my address let me know!

Emma's dance season has come to an end . . . here are some photos from last night's recital.

Sleeping Beauty (ballet) - Emma is on the right

There was one green costume and she was so excited to get it since green is her favorite color.  Speaking of green, last night Emma said, "I love you more than the color green, and you know that's a lot because I LOVE green!"  (Then she wondered why I had tears in my eyes)

They Make Me Feel Happy

a few pictures from Easter (I know the sneakers are tacky but they wore the outfits for about 90 minutes and I couldn't bring myself to buy shoes for that)

Fight for Air Climb - Ethan is Climbing!

Ethan is very excited to be participating in the American Lung Association's Fight for Air Climb on February 25th.  He was a volunteer last year but decided he wanted to climb the stairs.  I was nervous about him going by himself so I said I would climb with him.  Oh.  my.  gosh.  Ethan sprinted up the stairs and I nearly died before reaching the top.  But I made it.  Ethan was ready to send the paramedics down after me.  Here's his fundraising page . . . see what he has to say (and consider making a donation--he would be thrilled).  I love his enthusiasm and excitement about everything he does.
